11. The Typophiles

On its Website, The Typophiles are described as “a not-for-profit educational association that encourages the appreciation and production of fine typography and bookmaking.” The present (July, 2011) logo of The Typophiles is a reproduction of a DePol wood engraving. The date of origin for The Typophiles association is unknown, thought to be either 1930 or 1933. Material printed for The Typophiles is also located in folders relating to specific private presses, such as South Street Seaport, and The Glad Hand Press, and to occasions, such as The 50th Anniversary Celebration, and possibly in other folders as well. All keepsakes bear DePol engravings and, unless where indicated, unpaginated single folded sheets.
